In an April 29 video shared to Christine’s Instagram page, she included a series of clips from social media commentators who said she was “reality TV gold,” “one of the biggest villains reality TV has ever seen,” and “the entertainment” of the Netflix reality show.
“Did you miss me? I’m back,” she added, stepping off a private jet.

“YES!!! OG for life!!” Jason replied, along with a heart-eyed emoji.
As they confirmed their Selling Sunset returns on social media, Christine and Heather spoke out about what they’d be bringing to season 10.
“This isn’t a rewind,” Christine told Tudum by Netflix on April 29. “It’s a reintroduction. [Creator] Adam DiVello and I reconnected after my divorce, and I really appreciate him extending the invitation to come back on. I’m returning from a very different place, with more perspective, confidence, and clarity.”
Christine, who left the show after season five, explained that she’d “grown as an entrepreneur” and become more “strategic” since welcoming her son, Christian, in May 2021.
“Motherhood has a way of sharpening your priorities and changing how you move through the world,” she revealed. “I’ve become more intentional and much more protective of my peace. I’m still ambitious and direct, but I think people will see a version of me that’s more centered and even more sure of herself.”
“I’m hoping this chapter feels fresh and honest. I’m not coming back to play an old version of myself. I’m coming back to show where I am now and let the audience see that growth can still come with an edge,” she added.
As for Heather, who left her full-time role after season six, she’d also gone through a number of life changes.
“I’ve become a mom, a wife, a business owner, and I finally feel secure enough in who I am to walk back into that world and not lose myself in it,” she declared. “I’m calmer, more grounded, less reactive. I know what I want, and I’m not afraid to say it.”
She’s also been flipping houses with husband Tarek El Moussa, 44.
“Tarek and I have settled into something really beautiful together. We’re solid, we’re happy,” she gushed. “I want people to see the full picture of who I am now. Not just the dramatic moments, but the real life I’ve built.”
Looking ahead to season 10, Heather said she planned to confront unresolved issues with her castmates.
“There are conversations that got cut short,” she says. “I’m also not going to pretend things didn’t happen.”
“[This show] is really about a group of women building something together, rooting for each other, figuring it out. There was friendship and camaraderie at the core of it. Coming back, I really want to bring that original spirit with me,” she continued. “Obviously, when you put a group of women with big personalities in a room together, there’s going to be tension. That’s just reality, but it’s how you handle those differences that define the dynamic.”
